Aloha,
I’ve been busy shooting a variety of subjects. It seems to be never-ending so I post infrequently.
First are two videos from the new public viewing area in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. I have both short and full versions.
From this vantage point, you can see the far western portion of the lava lake at Halemaumau. As luck would have it that’s where the erupting vent is currently located. This small portion fills about 1/4 of the larger vent. The other part has been inactive lately. The current eruption so far has filled in about 265′. Once it reaches the next level of the caldera it will spread over a large area unless there’s another collapse before then.
For those of you that are interested I’ll have additional videos and photos from this location in the coming weeks.
The other videos were captured right on my lanai.
A small wasp nest that slowly grew in population only to later be decimated by a very hungry and aggressive Gecko.
The Paper Wasps were actually pretty docile and never bothered me. One day I took notice of the Gecko closing in on the nest and I was surprised to see it snatch a wasp and run off with it. This took numerous failed attempts as the main wasp would fight it off. Eventually, the gecko wiped out all but 2 of the juveniles. It even ate the ones still incubating within the nest. I caught that on video.
This all played out over several weeks and it was difficult catching the action as it happened quickly.
Images from these outings can be seen at the links below.
Lots of similar images from the eruption because so many had unique and interesting features.
